An impressive and beautifully maintained Victorian semi-detached villa, constructed in Bath stone and occupying an enviable position in sought-after Oldfield Park. Combining handsome period architecture with stylish contemporary improvements, this substantial family home offers exceptionally versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, together with a particularly attractive south-facing rear garden and ample off-road parking.
Description
The property has been extended and thoughtfully renovated and a contemporary styled kitchen was added approximately 5 years ago. The result is a wonderfully balanced home, retaining a wealth of original character while providing the space, flexibility and convenience expected of modern family living.
The front door opens into a useful entrance porch, ideal for coats and footwear, before leading into a generous central hallway and on to the principal reception rooms.
To the front is an elegant formal sitting room, featuring a handsome bay window, high ceilings, ornate cornicing and an attractive fireplace with gas fire. To the rear, a charming snug provides a more relaxed space, with a fireplace and working open fire and glazed doors opening directly onto the garden terrace and glazed doors opening directly onto the garden terrace.
The heart of the home is the impressive contemporary kitchen, beautifully appointed with crisp white cabinetry, integrated appliances and a central island. There is also room for a dining table, while a separate, well-equipped utility room provides excellent additional storage and workspace, together with a large sink and space for laundry appliances.
The rear extension has created a series of highly versatile spaces, including an office overlooking the garden and a further reception room with direct access to the rear terrace. This adaptable room could equally serve as a dining room, playroom, hobby room or entertaining space, making it particularly well suited to the demands of modern family life.
Upstairs are three generous double bedrooms and a further single bedroom currently arranged as a dressing room, together with a family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a particularly appealing room, enjoying a front-facing bay window and the added benefit of a stylish en suite shower room.
This property’s attic is one of only a few in the road which has not been converted. This generous storage space offers potential for further accommodation subject to planning.
Outside
Outside, the south-facing rear garden is a notable feature. Sunny, spacious and thoughtfully landscaped, it comprises an area of lawn and flower borders giving vibrant colour, together with a generous, paved terrace immediately adjoining the house which provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. A second terraced area extends along the left-hand side of the garden. A particularly large shed provides useful storage at the far end of the garden. Attractive views are afforded across the garden and beyond towards the upper reaches of Bloomfield Road.
To the front, a gravel driveway provides valuable off-road parking for up to 3 vehicles, a particularly useful feature in this popular residential setting.
There is scope for further extension, subject to the necessary planning consents, offering exciting potential for future owners to enhance the accommodation further, if desired.

Lower Oldfield Park is particularly well placed for access to the many amenities of Bath, combining a strong sense of community with excellent connectivity to the city centre.
